optical conditions affecting the quality of aerial sur 
vey photographs. The results attained in research 
work are applied in the educational field and in prac 
tical work done by the students. 
7. Schools 
Photogrammetry as a separate branch of techno 
logy is tought — as part of the curriculum of geodesy 
and cartography — at three Czechoslovak schools of 
university standard, in Prague, Brno and Bratislava. 
In addition, students of architecture, civil and con 
structional engineering, forestry and geology are 
tought the fundamentals of photogrammetry as part 
of their geodetical instruction. 
This basic photogrammetrical training continues 
through three semester terms. The total extent of lec 
tures, training, and field- and laboratory-practice 
sums up to more than 300 hours. (In the fourth-year 
winter semester 2 hours lectures and 2 hours training 
weekly; in the summer semester 4 hours of lectures, 
4 hours of training, and a fortnight’s field practice; 
in the winter semester of the lifth year 3 hours of 
lectures and 3 hours of training per week). 
All those schools have their photogrammetric 
laboratories, well equipped for terrestrial photogram 
metry (stereocomparators, phototheodolites, stereo 
autographs) as well as for aerial photogrammetry 
(universal photogrammetric plotters, rectifiers, stereo- 
meters, multiplex instruments, and other simple aids). 
The equipment facilitates intensive photogrammetric 
instruction of a high quality. 
8. International Cooperation in the I. S. P. 
During the period covered by this report, the 
CSSR. has greatly intensified her activities in the 
International Society of Photogrammetry. At the X th 
1. S. P. Congress in Lisbon, Czechoslovakia has been 
elected to the chairmanship of the IV th Commission, 
and during the four years past she has discharged 
the duties ensuing from this appointment. One of the 
chief successes of these activities was the International 
Photogrammetric Symposium held in Prague, in 1966. 
It attracted an extensive international participation 
and has fulfilled its mission very satisfactorily. 
Czechoslovak photogrammetrists took an active 
part in various symposia and conferences organized 
by other I. S. P. Commissions. They were active in 
the international tests organized by the III rd and IV th 
Commissions, as well as in the activities of the work 
ing groups of Commissions II and IV; they were also 
charged with leading the special-interest groups IV/5 
on criteria of photogrammetric accuracy.
